Liverpool have moved ahead of Arsenal in the race to sign Spanish star Alvaro Morata this transfer window according to reports.

Jurgen Klopp is believed to be putting together a £45.8 Million bid for the 23 year old player.

Morata has been struggling to get any game time at Juventus, since being replaced by Paulo Dybala , who was brought by the club for a fee of £30 Million.

Lack of match time has meant that the Spaniard only managed to score 15 goals last season. Liverpool are not the only club that are showing interest in the star, with Arsenal and Real Madrid also being linked to the forward.
